About The Thorough Detailer

A premium car and motorcycle detailing studio working from a gated, camera-monitored property on Te Okuroa Drive in Papamoa. It serves Papamoa, Mount Maunganui, Tauranga and the wider Bay of Plenty. The business says the person who quotes a vehicle is the one who details it, with no subcontractors.

The services are interior and exterior detailing, motorcycle detailing, paint correction, ceramic coating and car grooming. The website lists a complete vehicle rejuvenation package for a deep clean and protection, and a paint correction with lifetime ceramic coating package. Its starting prices, as at 2026, run from $169 for an exterior detail to $1,899 for the all-inclusive package. Drop-off and pick-up are available.

Customers say the communication was prompt and the car came back looking amazing. Others praise the attention to detail and the way the car smelled and looked afterwards.

It is at 187 Te Okuroa Drive, Papamoa.
